Book review: The Lost Words by Robert Macfarlane
Rating: 5 out of 5
I saw this as an exhibition at Nyman’s Garden and loved the combination of poetry and pictures but needed to be able to revisit the poems and speak them aloud. So I bought a copy of the book. I hadn’t realised that there were more poems in the book than in the exhibition so I’m glad I did. My current favourite is Newt but I’m sure that as I revisit them that will change, and change again, and change once more.

Listened to as an audiobook. It has mixed readers of the poems. I loved Edith Bowman‘s. So much inflection. And she read Newt in a delightful way.
